Iconic Lighting with Serge Mouille
The legacy of designer and light pioneer, Serge Mouille, continues just a few miles from Monthiers, France. The man himself grew up in Paris, spending his holidays on his grandparents’ farm and many among nature at Jardin des Plantes. His childhood and tutelage under icons like Gabriel Lacroix helped shape the inquisitive and experimental mind of Mouille who later worked with Jacques Adnet—creating the lights we know and love so much today. This is iconic lighting with Serge Mouile.
Iconic Lighting
Through his study of metallurgy and silversmithing, Mouille was able to cleverly merge his interest in nature with metal, infusing that inspiration into the minimalist, and distinctly Mid-Century, series of wall, ceiling, and floor lamps we see today. The insect-like shapes, adjustable joints, and oval shades of these modern lights are now among the most recognizable 20th Century designs creating a Serge Mouille legacy embraced by generation after generation.
One Arm Floor Lamp
The Serge Mouille One Arm Floor Lamp joins its fellow Serge Mouille lamps to pay homage to the designer’s visionary influence. Using simple materials and clean, sharp lines the Serge Mouille One Arm Floor Lamp adopts the insect-like features that helped Serge Mouille find his footing in the lighting world.
A single shade is connected to the long arm of the One Arm Floor Lamp by a joint that allows the light to be pointed where it is needed. Available in a black or white finish, the One Arm Floor Lamp cuts a modest yet distinguished silhouette in all commercial or domestic living spaces.
Family-Owned Serge Mouille
After establishing himself as a master of the Mid-Century lighting innovations, Editions Serge Mouille® (ESM) was established. Founded by Mouille’s family, the goal of this continuation of Mouille’s life’s work is to preserve his philosophy and the projects that defined his life and creative catalogue. Today, Serge Mouille designs remain on the market and in homes thanks to the tireless work and dedication of Mouille’s son Didion, and grandson Pascal.
Saturnus Wall Sconce
Adapting the classic Serge Mouille light, the Saturnus Wall Sconce is a refreshing and modest wall light. Endlessly functional, the sconce swivels and pivots on its brass joint. What’s more, it becomes the quintessential task light or gallery spotlight thanks to its Saturn-esque ring of aluminum which creates a shade to reflect and direct the light.
Sleek aesthetics are paired with warmth, authenticity, and classic, Mid-Century design fundamentals to create a wall lamp that suits every room, hallway, lobby, and restaurant.
Flame Wall Sconce
The Flame Wall Sconce is an iconic piece of modern lighting that seamlessly blends artistic, sculptural design with practical functionality. Designed by Serge Mouille in 1962, the flame-inspired shape emanates light upwards while also encouraging it to snake down for a burst of illumination. The result: dramatic shadows that enhance the ambiance of any room and a focal point to jumpstart conversation and leave a lasting impression.
2 Arm Ceiling Lamp
Using simple materials and clean, sharp lines the Serge Mouille 2 Arm Ceiling Lamp adopts the insect-like features that helped Serge Mouille establish his spot on the list of iconic Mid-Century geniuses. Two arms, each capped by a single shade drop from a single canopy angling to adopt the same insect-inspired expression. The reaching, elbowed arms are connected come together at the canopy while the shades are attached via brass joints that allow you to point the light where it is needed most.
The distinguished silhouette grabs the attention of all who see it and offers an enchanting expression in all living or dining spaces.
